Lisa Delpit's "The Silenced Dialogue"- Question about Acceptance vs. Language of Power

To teach everyone acceptance is a fantastic goal, but I do not see it as being realistic that we can exchange teaching acceptance for teaching the language of power. We can hope that our world and our society will change, and that the language of power will dissipate, but we have to come to terms with the fact that such is not the reality of today. It is our duty to teach minority children the language of power, so that they have the necessary means to succeed and flourish in the world. Do we throw out teaching acceptance? Absolutely not, but we need to find the balance of how to promote both. We should want our children to grow up learning how to better accept one another and their language differences, while giving equal opportunity for success to every child.
